  • Scheck didn't say that in the OJ case. He said the technicians' work was so sloppy it couldn't be trusted. You can't convict people based on questionable evidence. The jury was told that by the judge.

  • Can you sue the state of govt if you have been wrongfully put in prison? I can't think of many things worse than this.

  • Barry's done a lot of good for all those people.I just wish he didn't represent OJ.He knew that SOB did it.

  • @Hexl702 Yeah, but he's made up for that stupid OJ stuff 20x over with his work at the innocence project.

  • 200 is a very, very, very small fraction of the innocent people who are incarcerated.

  • @ChocolatePoop1301 Yes you can sue if it is determined the prosecutor (State) willfully ignored or hid key evidence, or whether any impropriaties occurred involving your conviction. Many wrongfully accused have sued & received large settlements, however it can never remove the physical & emotional suffering experienced, particularly w/ the loss of years. A strong support system is needed. The system also needs to assign officials having to apologize for those errors, as they rarely do it.

  • @fabiantr100 When will people ever learn that racist comments only serve to "negate" Any credibility whatsoever for the person making the comment. It also speaks ill towards who or ever whatever raised you as a person. I doubt that it's really Scheck you can't stand, as your baseless comment only speaks to an obvious self-hatred. I hope they find a "cure" for you soon.

  • @yamuvah He's a slime ball. He also tries to get gulity killer out of jail too.

  • I can't stand this liar. he should fix his jewish nose with all his wealth.

  • America's Wrongfully Convicted . c0m

  • thank you barry scheck!
